I saw the westbound California Zephyr at Agency, Iowa this evening. Amtrak #5's first car was a Federal Railroad Administration test car. It think it's the DOTX 221.

 
Thank you. A few updates. There was no FRA car on 6 departing Emy-chi. I asked a conductor or assistant conductor where the pv was going. He said it was being switched off in Denver.

There is a winter storm going through Denver tonight which will drop 6 inches of snow along I 25 corridor.

I was out there yesterday with a camera and a tripod. But I was 1) next to a road, not in the middle of it, and 2) it was a gravel road, not a dirt road.
